The newly unveiled Hyper Elite Platinum line (Mega Awesome Diamond was already trademarked by a group of Junior College fashion designers in LA) is a futuristic grayed out bastardization of classic uniforms of schools like Duke, Syracuse, UCONN, and Baylor much like what Nike did to the college football uniforms of Oregon and Ohio State over the past couple of seasons. ]]> http://ftrsports.com/2012/01/nike-unveils-platinum-college-basketball-uniforms-for-9-elite-schools/feed/ 0 http://ftrsports.com/2011/12/even-prison-inmates-dont-like-being-molested-by-bernie-fine/ http://ftrsports.com/2011/12/even-prison-inmates-dont-like-being-molested-by-bernie-fine/#comments Fri, 16 Dec 2011 06:59:42 +0000 Charles Drengberg http://ftrsports.com/?p=164859529 Normally, when prison inmates complain about being molested, no one listens.

On Tuesday, that tune-up game became an embarrassment for basketball powerhouse Syracuse, when they lost 81-79.
